The purpose of this site
is to share Sargent family history through pictures, journals and letters starting with the family of Joshua and Mary Sargent of Alton, Maine and moving backward in time through prior generations.The descendants of Joshua and Mary Sargent are flung far and wide, and this is an easy way to share family history.

This blog is mostly focused on some of the Sargents in Maine. But through Mary Foster Butman, who married Joshua Dodge Sargent, we have been able to scan and back up a lot of images of Searsport Butman and Pendleton relatives. These are scanned from a booklet put together by my father with the identifying descriptions scanned as well. Images are not in order as they are in the booklet. Here is a link to the bookletwith images in order as they were in Mary's album.

These 19th century images are of the following individuals from Sargent family of Alton, Maine and the Butman and Pendleton families of Searsport, Maine. Shown below are the following names:

New information is always welcome that bears light on the Sargents in Alton, the Sargents in Monroe and prior generations. If you have letters, pictures or other information that you think may bear light on Joshua and Mary Sargent or prior generations of Sargents in Maine, please
